Carbon Dioxide - CO2
Carbon dioxide (CO2) serves a variety of key applications across industries. In its solid state (-78°C), carbon dioxide – also known as dry ice – is a cold source that can be used as a cryogenic fluid for processes such as tissue conservation deep-freezing and fire extinction, as it is non-combustible. Carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere by chemical and oil and gas operations can be captured and purified for use in many industries and applications.
- Air Liquide offer food grade pure gases and mixtures for the production and packaging of food products.
- The ARCAL™ range offers gas for welding.
- The LASAL™ range offers gases for laser processes.
- The ALPHAGAZ™ ranges offers pure gases and special mixtures, as well as equipment for analytical and research applications.
